I ordered a few things off an online plant and seed place, if anyone would like to know specifically where I can surely give you the address.
Among what I purchased was a dwarf tangerine tree and a dwarf lemon tree. I also purchased a small pepper plant called "medusa" but I don't think its considered a dwarf variety, and some strawberry plants that are supposed to be good for indoor growing in a pot. Anyway, I went to the library and found what I could on growing dwarf trees. What I plan on doing is putting them in pots and leaving them outside during th summer until the weather starts to get cooler, then I'll bring them inside for the winter.
Does anyone have any experience with growing something like this? I'm wondering how hard they will be to care for and if there is any kind of special care that is needed. I assume that fertilizer would be the same as for any other kind of citrus tree.
